Milton strengthens to Category 5 hurricane
abcnews.go.com

Milton rapidly intensified to a Category 5 hurricane late Monday morning.

Within hours, Milton strengthened to a Category 2, then a Category 3, then a Category 4 and finally a Category 5.

Milton now ranks as the third-greatest 24-hour wind speed intensification for a hurricane in the Atlantic Basin. (Records are based on data since the satellite era began in the 1960s.)

Good thing they removed climate change from being a thing discussed in the legislature. That should fix things.

They forgot to make a law against it!

\s

SCOTUS should declare climate change unconstitutional.

Where’s the magic sharpie when you need it?

Anyone got a nuke? I have an idea.

I guess nuking Florida before the hurricane gets there would reduce the damage inflicted by the hurricane.
